I live in Ferndale, WA Years from now, you will remember what you achieved as a young person. Be grateful for your youth and health and achievements and for having the technology to share it with us. The world is a wonderful place and you still have ,God willing, many adventures ahead of you. Cheers, Frederick "Rik" Spector

I’m 71 years old and just starting my dream of hiking the PCT. Worked 45 years as an ICU / ER Nurse, married 48 years, two sons and 5 grandchildren . Now it’s my time to do what I’ve always wanted to do. I am one year post two knee replacements. Last week I did my first 4 miles on the PCT. Next June, I will be 72 years old, hiking with my 71 yer old brother on the PCT. I am very excited to start my new journey.

"And then it's done, your footprints washed away in the rain." When you're older young people will start to ask...what does it feel like to be 50? or 60? or 80? To me it feels like this, you're walking the trail and there are glorious moments and painful ones and the further along you get the more you want to see thru to the end but you feel the bittersweet longing for the excitement of when you started. The wisdom that comes was hard earned but worth the pain and you know as you watch loved ones cross over we were only ever meant to be passing thru.

Those memories are always with me at 61 years young. There is a saying in spanish that is “que me quiten lo bailado “ “take away from me the dances” Is a saying relating to the end of life as you look back and only have your memories, and you will definitely have amazing memories.

Young lady, I want to thank you for making and sharing your video. I’m sure it took a lot of time to put together. Last night I was stressed out. Bills, career, cars, wife, kids, clutter around the house, all the trappings of a western life had pushed and built up around me. I went for a 5 mile run, took a nice cool shower, cracked a cold beer and somehow stumbled across your video. I watched a bit, felt my mind drift off to my home state of California and faded to sleep. This morning I made my coffee and sat in the big chair to watch the rest. I could literally feel the stress continuing to drain out of my body as I watched the rest of your story. I’ve never done the PCT or any long distance hike like that, but it has tickled my imagination for years now. Someday, someday I will join you and the others to earn that hiker smell, look down at my worn down shoes, endure a sore body and the store away memories of sights and experiences that will travel with me for a lifetime, just as they do for you. Thank you again. All the best. Brian

And though it's changed who you will be forever, the trail won't remember you. Because after all, you're only ever just passing thru". What an emotional and bittersweat ending. There are also some other PCT-Documentaries with stunning visuals (for example the one of Titouan Le Roux).

Our stories make us human, and through stories we pass our experiences to each other. Courteney gives us her story, a montage of wondorous landscapes, emotions and many other nameless things that make us human.

I’ve been dying to get into thru hiking like this after months of watching videos, training for distance runs and weightlifting for years. I have a 2 year old and I wonder if I’d be able to do this with her. Either way, how do I get into something like this? Where do you even meet people who enjoy stuff like this? I’m too afraid to go alone. I have plenty of friends, just we are all “city people” lol. They don’t like to do stuff like this. But what an inspiring video!!!

Sameeee I’ve been camping and doing backpack and style stuff, my whole life but none of my friends are into it and I don’t know if I could do this alone either - it’s definitely a dream trip to say the least!!!

Me too! Except I’m trying to get pregnant again so it will be some time, but I’m itching to try it

I have dreamed of walking the PCT for the last 5 years. Unfortunately, it's something that will never happen for me. Thank you for this stunning video, beautifully edited. ❤🌏🌍🌎
